Is there an order to placing commands in .htaccess file?

    I have to keep the below block at the bottom of my htaccess file or other commands won't work. Why? I didn't think there was any order to commands in the Apache file. Is that right?
    # BEGIN WordPress
    #NEEDS TO BE AT END OF FILE OR HIDE DEBUG FILE CODE DOESN'T WORK
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

    # uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^ - [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]
    # END WordPress

    RewriteEngine On and RewriteBase / should be placed just once at the top of the .htaccess file. Don't use them again and again.

    Thank you for the reply. I moved the block to file top and commented out the multiple RewriteEngine On. I had only one RewriteBase / which was in the block. Doing this exposed the debug.log
